STEAMBOAT BILL, JR. (1928) stars Buster Keaton's (the Great Stone Face) in the last of his nine independent feature films and one of the last silent comedies. The film - actually co-written, co-produced, and co-directed by actor Keaton (with director Chas. F. Reisner) was derived from a story by Carl Harbaugh, although Keaton only took credit for acting. Featuring some of his best known stunts, Keaton plays the college-aged son of a cantankerous riverboat captain joining up with his father's crew. Christian Elliott joins us on the Mighty Wurlitzer Organ.
